NZ vs ENG, ODI Series, Match 3 Pitch Report

The last ODI played at this venue was way back in 2019, with batters getting enough assistance. It's wise to bat first after winning the toss, thanks to the flatness of the wicket. However, pacers will have a good time on this wicket, getting lateral movement.
